Gingervillain2.8 Camera not working any more - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I used gingervillain 2.8 for a while. everything worked fine.
Using the Camera as well. I took a photo and afterwards simply turned off the Screen by using the Power button. When activating again I could still see parts of the Camera app. Because of rotation only parts could be seen, so rotation didn't realy finish. App stuck in this position, so after some minutes I decided to stop the app.
When trying to take pictures later (I didn't use it directly after stopping the app) app start, but all I see is a black screen, nothing on it. no menubutton working. waiting for about 30second to a minute results in a error asking for stopping or waiting for the app.
I already tried deleting app cache, as well as Dalvik Cache. Any more ideas?
Same Problem with any other camera app I used to use on my Desire.

Camera Force Close [CM7]

This has happened 5 times now. My desire camera will work fine, and take many photos no problem, until one day I open the app, its unresponsive and it will force close.
Clearing cache, dalvik cache, data for the camera app does not fix it. Reflashing the entire rom however does. This appears to be the only way to fix it.
I set logcat to verbose, tapped the camera app, waited a couple of seconds, then tapped the screen twice, triggering the force close message. This is a filter of that output with the word "camera" in it.

CM7.1 RC1.
on other firmwares too?
On the official gingerbread my camera will trigger reboot if I touch the screen a couple of times. As long as i never touch the screen, only use trackball it will work.

[Q] currently on CM9, build 508, but no working camera..help!

Its been like this awhile but my my camera seems to force close every time I go to the stock camera app. The app opens and the camera shows a very laggy display when moving it around but then when I press the button to take the pic, it force closes and says "Unfortunately, the camera has stopped working." My friend has the same phone and ROM and build # on his phone and he has no camera issues.
P.S. camera takes pictures when I'm on a third party app (ex. Instagram, camera fun, paper camera etc...)

Wipe Data/Dalvik/Cache and start from scratch all over.
I'm having the same problem with my Sprint Galaxy Nexus. I've flashed a couple of different roms, wiping cache/dalvik/system every time. Yet the stock Camera continues to crash upon launch.
Only because I'm lazy right now I haven't yet wiped everything and started fresh. But I did remember I had purchased this app awhile ago: Camera ICS+
It's basically the stock Camera with a few tweaks to it. Since all 3rd party camera apps work fine, this one launched and shoots photos/video/panoramas no problem.
They have a free version with ads, but a couple dollars instead of completely wiping everything might be something to consider.
go to manage apps, all, camera.. then press the clear data button. now try reopening the camera app.
Take adb logcat, reproduce the issue, forward it to the right places.

Ah, well... will you look at that. This fixed the problem for me. Went to the App Info for Camera and hit Clear Data. Works like a charm now, thanks!

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Nexus JB 4.1.2 Video Camera not Working, Gallery has stopped.

Updated to JB 4.1.1 and video camera not working, Gallery Stopped.
Updated to JB 4.1.2 same problem.
My camera and panorama are working fine.
Please help.
Thank you.
I'm having a similar problem.. last night, I attempted to use the TeslaLED widget to aid myself while walking my dog at night. To my chagrin, the light never came on. I wondered if it was the light itself, so I attempted to open the camera to take a picture... it immediately closed and showed "gallery stopped" for an error message. I rebooted the phone hopping that would fix the problem. The problem was still there after booting back up.
I was running a CM10 nightly that I've had for over a month. My Verizon Galaxy Nexus is rooted and unlocked. I attempted to flash a stable CM10, but am still having the same problem. I will attempt to flash stock tonight to see if that fixes it.
Gallery not working
Ever since JB 4.2.1 update...my gallery and camera no longer works! Tried clearing cached, hard reset but no luck. Next step might be to toss it out the window....
Ok, somehow its fixed! I had backed up my gnex via recovery mode before I installed the stable cm10. When that didn't fix my problem, I restored the backup do I didn't have to reconfigure everything again when I flashed stock later yesterday evening. But, to my surprise, restoring the backup fixed the problem!
I too am having an issue w/ my Gnex's camera. The app will open from the gallery, & the camera buttons are at the bottom of the screen, but the screen is black. You can push the button to capture a pic, but nothing happens, you can switch to record video & it locks up & FC's. Every now & then you can open the app directly from the camera widget, but it typically just goes to a black screen w/ the software keys at the bottom faded out & the phone just locks up. I replaced the camera w/ a known working camera from a parts Gnex I have. Same issue. I was running 4.1.2, but I've since upgraded to 4.2.2 hoping there was some sort of software fix. No dice... still doing the same thing. The isn't rooted... but I'm going to root it & throw on another ROM to see if I can get it working somehow... but outside of that, I don't know what else to do. Any new ideas?

[Q] Htc Camera app Black screen, but camera is fine!

Hi,
I come to you for a strange problem...
From one week, I can't use the HTC camera app. When i launch it, I have a black screen. I thought the camera was broken but snapchat was working :/
So, I donwloaded an other camera app (google), and front and rear camera work well. But, if I start Htc camera app, and other camera, it will bug, I just have to close the HTC app and others apps work again... I tried to clear data app.
I Run ARHD 11.1, root, s-off...
Does anyone seen it before?
Thanks,
Allan
Edit : When I am on the HTC cameara app, I can activate the flash, take a picture (because I know where the buttons are)..But the screen is still black!
Same issue mate
I've cleared the data and still no joy other apps work just not the htc camera as its just black but I know it still works as I can hear it, what modules do you have running mate? I'm in viper one 2.5 and s-off
I also have a black screen on my Camera app htc one m8
Try to re-flash the ROM, with full wipe (data, cache and Dalvik).
Also, make sure your firmware is up to date.
I don't want to reflash tho as just got the phone how I like it minus the camera tho lol Google camera works I've uninstall htc m8 camera and reinstalled it fresh still no joy just a black screen maybe I'll wait for a update on the viper one rom, oh also the mini camera works of the viper side bar
I'm having this same issue in the same rom but when I use Google camera it says can't connect to camera
Do you have any screen rotation locks on?
I had this exact same problem and I looked all over for a solution with no luck. Other than a hard reset I had run out of options. I was deleting other apps that use the camera and checking back every time, and one time I opened the app and it worked for a few seconds before turning the screen landscape (I was still holding it portrait), then turning to black screen again. I checked my rotation lock, and it was locked to portrait. I tried unlocking the rotation and what do you know, it worked perfectly after that. I tried relocking the screen rotation to portrait, and the problem came back. I turned it off again, and it works perfectly.

Camera app suddenly constantly crashing

So last night I came home from work and was going to take a picture of my daughter but the app kept immediately crashing. I used it just fine earlier in the day.
The weird thing is that it also does this in safe mode. But Open Camera works just fine; but I need that burst functionality. I just want the app to work and I'm clueless what to do.
Are you running rooted or no rooted? Tried resetting the camera app through Application settings? Wipe all data etc
Not rooted. I uninstalled updates and still does it. I haven't find a factory reset yet as if I do that I'll just root.
I was hoping it was an easy fix.
..
I randomly get this when I open my camera app
Same here, does anyone have a way to fix it?
